THE MAKROPOULOS SECRET

May I ask what right?

No.

[She walks away]

Hm! It appears—another secret of yours.

[She turns and comes back]

Yes—Will you give it to me?

No.

Very well. Then Berti shall give it to me. It belongs to him, anyway.

We’ll see. Tell me, what’s in the envelope?

No. What do you know about the Makropoulos paper?

Another question—What do you know about Ellian MacGregor?

You have her letters.

Perhaps you know more about it. Do you know anything else about that—courtesan?
